1996 Geo Tracker 4x4 convertible review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield wiper motor burned out.
F-clip for rear plastic window broke.
Stitching came apart on inside of vinyl top.
Stops on the zippers tend to corrode easily.
Chipped windshield and has gone through many wiper blades.
General comments?
Fun, but not a good 'only' car. It is much too noisy above 40mph or so. The ride is horrible for long trips. In 2wd it is highly susceptible to loss of traction and being blown around at speed. The gas tank is a bit too small.
On the plus side this car is amazing in snow, and is a lot of fun with the top down. It also has many configurations for partial removal of the top.
